How does Engenhos do Norte RA Agricola Madeira Island 2016 taste?
Fruity, winey agricole value play
If you’re agricole-curious and like dry red wine or brandy tones, this hits a sweet spot: fruity, mildly earthy and affordable, but still clearly cane-juice and not overloaded with power.
Beginners wanting sweet, easy 40% sippers, drinkers who dislike winey or grapey profiles, and agricole purists looking for older, more complex or very grassy expressions.
Super fruity rum with a great PLV. Of course, it still lacks complexity due to its young age.

First try: OK, got impressionsof cherries, but will wait for the final verdict on the second session. 2nd Tasting: nicer overall, like a mix of Spanish and French style. It comes very fruity, I got lots of cherry, has the Spanish style middle and an Agricole finish. A nice sipper.
Absolute price-performance hit!
Ein sehr von (Rot-)Wein geprägter Rum mit viel Traube und roten, säuerlichen Früchten und Holz. Es handelt sich um einen Agricole, was man auch an erdigen/pflanzlichen Noten und dem Zuckerrohr bemerkt, allerdings ist der Rum vergleichsweise mild und fruchtig im Mund. Hätte ein paar Punkte mehr bekommen, aber der Rotwein an der Nase und die pflanzlichen Noten im Abgang sind zu dominant für meinen Geschmack. Eine Flasche findet man nicht mehr, zum Glück aber noch eine Probe! War ein spitzen Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis.
In der Nase dominieren Pflaume, reife Brombeeren und junges Holz, der Alkohol ist dezent wahrnehmbar und erinnert mich an alten Armagnac Am Gaumen ist zuerst eine angenehme Süße präsent! Der Rum verteilt sich cremig, mild und leicht im Mundraum ! Der Alkohol ist kaum spürbar! Überrascht bin ich von den röstigen und eher schweren Aromen mit angenehmer bittriger Tendenz! Wie lang gezogener Tee!. Das hat was! Der Abgang ist mittellang und setzt den Eindruck des Gaumen sanft fort! Sehr schöner Rum
